The Real Thing

A pretend boyfriend becomes much more than make-believe in this reader-favorite Westmoreland novel from New York Times bestselling author Brenda Jackson!

Super focused on her career, pediatrics resident Trinity Matthews is at her wits’ end trying to ward off the unwanted advances of a colleague. But when she confides in her sister, Tara, they come up with a plan. Tara will get one of her husband’s cousins to pretend to be Trinity’s boyfriend to get the doctor to back off. Adrian Westmoreland is recruited for the job.

Adrian has no problem doing his cousin-in-law a favor by pretending to be her sister’s love interest. In fact, no red-blooded man would turn down the gorgeous Trinity Matthews’s request—and Adrian Westmoreland is definitely red-blooded. Soon there’s real chemistry sizzling between these two and the lines become blurred. As a Westmoreland, Adrian is all about honorable intentions, but how long can he hold out before he turns this fake affair into something real?

From Harlequin Desire: Luxury, scandal, desire—welcome to the lives of the American elite.
